Services
In 1986 'Business Forms Services' was established in Reading, Berkshire by John Hope. BFS began selling Rollin self-adhesive printing blankets to business forms and envelope printers and quickly gained stature within the print industry allowing the company to expand its product range, hire new staff and move to larger premises.
BFS offers a fantastic array of products to suit presses of all types and sizes. Full technical support & advice is available throughout the UK from a team of experienced and knowledgeable print industry professionals. As well as World leading brands, BFS offers its own branded Endura range of roller compounds alongside chemistry and roller care product ranges; ICON and REVIVE to offer customers further value for money.
Which is why, after 30 years in business, we have built up a range of printing blankets that are all unique in their own right and work perfectly in one or more of the following segments: Heatset, Coldset, Sheetfed, Packaging, Forms/Envelopes, Specialist and Coating. We began supplying offset printing blankets in the mid-1980's and have developed into one of the UK's biggest and most proficient blanket manufacturers and distributors.
BFS offers new, exchange and recovered printing rollers, suitable for all press types and print sectors using specialist compounds for all applications whether conventional, UV or mixed as well as being the UK's sole licensed manufacturer of Westland Rollers. BFS and its expertise of rubber compounds has become synonymous with knowledge and innovation when it comes to roller manufacture in the UK.
A customer was having issues with the life of its blankets and underblankets whenever there was a smash while printing with board. Each time there was a smash, both blankets and underblankets needed to be replaced. BFS recommended Finito as the optimal compression and rebound properties of the packings would improve smash resistance and reduce the need for changing the blankets as frequently.
